NLDS Game 2 Reds vs. Philly
No lineups yet but I believe the Reds are undefeated when I start a game thread so I figured I'd throw caution to the wind and get this started.

I'm superstitious about this stuff. Good luck Chip.

Re: NLDS Game 2 Reds vs. Philly
I have a good feeling about tonight. And here's why:
I was watching the Yanks and Twins and fell asleep on the couch last night. I got into a deep enough sleep to have a dream. In the dream it was game two of Reds and Phils and my favorite player Orlando Cabrera had just hit his second HR of the game, a grand slam no less. Just before I woke up I saw his grand slam made the score 17-7 Reds in the top of the 8th inning. Cabrera's first HR was apparently a 3-Run shot. So if he drives in 7 runs tonight, I will never bring up Paul Janish again. When I woke up I realized that I had my dream during the same time that Orlando Hudson had hit his HR for the Twins, so I think that may have influenced my dream. I swear to God that's all true.

We need some hits, so I changed my avatar to Pete for tonight's game.

Re: NLDS Game 2 Reds vs. Philly
Wow, Nix 5th. I guess that works out better though. If Ocab is going to drive in 7 he'll need Bruce, Stubbs and Hannigan getting on base.

Re: NLDS Game 2 Reds vs. Philly
Why must Bruce bat below Gomes/ Nix? At least we have a playoff lineup though.

Re: NLDS Game 2 Reds vs. Philly
Arroyo has to find his way through Utley and Howard without getting hurt. If he can do that, I think he can pitch well tonight.

Re: NLDS Game 2 Reds vs. Philly
Bruce behind Nix = epic fail
Don't want anybody clogging the bases I guess.
